Unlike Holm, Vieira celebrated his victory: “I went for the knockout and she just kept tying the fight. She is the “shepherd’s daughter”, but I am the one who takes the name of Jesus to the octagon. She is boxing hall of fame and an excellent kickboxer. When she felt my hand, she started to grab me, and I made a camp for me to grab her. It confused me, but I knew God would give me this victory. Listen up everybody, I’m the next champion of this division“.
